After Chen Zhun finished coping with the press conference, he rushed to the Staplewood training base of the Southampton club that he was familiar with with in his mind. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info He will next meet the president of the club, Rupert Rowe, there. Chen Zhun carefully skimmed aside the football memories of his previous life on the way there, looking for valuable characters.
Chen Zhun came to the Staplewood training base, although the Staplewood training base was a training base that could not be broken one by one. But Chen Zhun was still a little surprised after seeing it. But he couldn't show it, because this body attached to his body worked here every day and had long been accustomed to it. Chen Zhun later learned that the training base of the Premier League is generally not good. Besides, the construction of the club's hardware facilities is not Chen Zhun's responsibility, and he is now only concerned about keeping his position as the most important thing.
Southampton FC's chairman's office has only chairman Rupert Lowe and manager David Winston.
Rupert Lowe looked at the young man in front of him and said kindly: "David, welcome to be the acting head coach of Southampton. I've heard what you said at the press conference. The expression is fantastic! You defended the dignity of the team! We look forward to your performance and you know that the contract says that if you lead the team to the satisfaction of the board, the board will automatically make you the real manager of Southampton. Do you have any requirements now? Although it is brought up. ā
Rupert Lowe thought to himself, even though Winston was acting head coach, he could still meet her one or two requests.
Chen Zhun was determined, and his idea of convincing the transfer authority was still pressed in his heart, because he was only the acting head coach now, and what he said now would only make Rupert Lowe disgust himself. Now it's better to talk about some requirements within your ability, and wait for yourself to have capital in the future, and then talk about the goals to be achieved in the future.
Chen Zhun told Rupert Lowe about the two candidates he had in mind just now. "Mr. President, now I only want two people to help me with my work."
Rupert Lowe thought he was going to say something big, and it turned out to be the same as previous managers, either buying players or adding to the headcount. "Just two people? Go ahead. ā
"One is Frank Arneson and one is Les Reid."
Frank Arneson. An excellent youth specialist. Wang Legend thought of him for two reasons. One is that Frank Arneson is the youth director or director of football who must be grabbed at the beginning of FM. He's a bug in the game. The second is the year Wang Legend is now in, Arneson is not doing well at Tottenham Hotspur, and he has announced that he will not be the head of Tottenham Hotspur's youth for his own personal reasons. Chen Zhun also knew that Arneson defected to Chelsea in 2005, for which Tottenham Hotspur fans called Arneson a traitor. Now is a good time to cut off the beard, so now he must grab Arneson.
Rice Reid. This is the youth director of Southampton in the real world. Reid spent time in the FA before arriving at Southampton, initially as an assistant coach for England national team manager Keegan before replacing Wilkinson as FA technical director in 2002. In 2004, Reid was still working in the FA, but Reed's technical director at the FA was only a fictitious position. It's not hard to dig him up now.
Rupert Lowe frowned when he heard these two names, and then stretched out again, and said to Chen Zhun: "David, Les Reid is not a big problem, we can get him." Although Frank Arneson has fallen out with Tottenham Hotspur, his release fee is also very expensive. What do you want these two to help you? ā
'I'm short of an assistant coach right now, and Reid could have taken that position. Arneson can be the leader of Southampton's youth system, and with his youth ability, Southampton's youth level will gradually improve. I have no other request than these two people, President. ā
Rupert Rowe also knows in his heart that if Arneson can come to Southampton, then Southampton's academy will continue to grow, and it will also take the opportunity to compete with Premier League giants for young players in the future. When Arneson was head of youth at PSV Eindhoven, he tapped into the likes of Ronaldo, Arjen Robben, Stam and Ruud van Nistelrooy.
Rupert Lowe pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Okay, David, I promise you, but I won't give you any more transfer fees now. The summer transfer is over. If you want to buy someone, just wait for the winter. Of course you can look for free youth players. ā
Chen Zhun had long expected Rupert Lowe to say this, and said calmly: "Okay. Mr. President. ā
Rupert Lowe nodded and continued, "Let's talk about the grades. The board and I are reassured of you. You can let go of the inhibitions and do it boldly. My only request was the League Cup, the FA Cup, and winning one of those two competitions. We're going to go to Europe. This is crucial for the club. That's the bottom line for the club. ā
Chen Zhun secretly scolded Rupert Lowe in his heart. "Nice counterattack. Southampton has only won the FA Cup once in so many years, and it would be good to rely on the current squad to cope with the Premier League, and to compete for the cup title, if I can't meet this requirement, it is likely that when the cup is eliminated, it will be time for me to be sacked. ā
Chen Zhun couldn't refuse, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Okay, Mr. President, I will do my best to lead Southampton to win the Cup." Mr. President. If there's nothing to do, I'll get busy. ā
Rupert Rowe nodded and motioned for Chen Zhun to go out. Chen Zhun's first meeting with the chairman ended in a hurry.
August 1st was Sunday and the team didn't come to training today. Chen Zhun came to his own office with Winston's memory. It's a very ordinary office, with no decorations other than a desk, a computer and a chair. The large office looks empty, and the furnishings of such an office do not set off the identity of a manager of a Premier League club. Chen Zhun also knew in his heart that Southampton was doing this to let Winston understand that he was just an interim head coach. Winston is innocent, but he was chosen by Chen Zhun who crossed over, and from the moment he was possessed became innocent to lucky. Chen Zhun also knows his current situation, without any rights, without any choice, all he can do now is to lead Southampton to score points frantically, ensure smooth promotion to the League Cup, and wait for the arrival of the winter transfer period.
